Dolly Parton To Release “Pure & Simple” Album, Reveals Track Listing and Cover Art

On Thursday (July 7) country’s iconic singer, Dolly Parton, announced that she will be releasing a new album, Pure & Simple, on August 19.

“I may not be pure, but I’m as simple as they come. This new Pure & Simple project is really special to me because I’m taking my fans back to my roots.

“I feel like these songs have a pure, tender side and we didn’t go overboard with arrangements. I’m so glad we’ve teamed up with our friends at Sony to get this album out to the fans,” said Dolly, who co-produced the album.

Dolly and her Dolly Records imprint have joined forces with RCA Nashville, an imprint of Sony Music Nashville, for the launch of this album, marking a return to the label she signed with in 1967.

“Dolly Parton is a national treasure and an iconic singer/songwriter,” added Sony Music Entertainment CEO, Doug Morris. “We are thrilled to be expanding our successful relationship with her through this new global agreement. We are very proud to call her a member of the Sony Music family.”

The singer also released the track listing and album cover art. You can pre-order Pure & Simple now and catch Dolly on her Pure & Simple Tour through the end of the year.
